Y Figure 5 is afragmentary view of a portion of a modified form of barbers garmentprovided with a modified form ofpocket.

Figure 6 is a horizontal detail lsection of the modified form of pockettaken on lineVI-VI of'Figure 5.- v if Y Figure 7 is a vertical detailsection of the modified -form of pocket taken on line As shown on thedrawing :--Y f .o The reference numerall lindicates a barber or hairtrimming attendant Wearing an improved barbers coat, smoclr orgownpreferablyconstructed `ofV a Washable material. The improved coat isrepresented as a whole bythe reference numeral2 and may be of anyselected design, length or size such as are com- Vmonly furnishedbybarber-coat supplyservice companies who rent out the coats and proj'vide laundry service in connection therewith.

The coat 2 may be provided with a beltB or with any-other suitable meanssuch as buttons for the purpose of closing the coat. The improved coatis 'also provided with a plurality of inner and outer sanitary pocketsof differ,- ent sizes which are secured in convenient locations on thegarments; Thel improved pockets may be of the hidden or exposedvtypo andmay be of any desired size and shape. In the present showing anl innerupper pocket and lower outer pockets of the patch or sport Y pocket typeare shown. Y Each of thesanitary pockets comprisesa' patch'or piece vofmaterial'4 which is cut out to a. desired shape and isstitched orotherwise securedto eitherthe inner or outerI sides of the body portionof the garment 2 alongthe top edge 5, along one side edge 6 and' alongthe bottom edge 7.aS clearly illustrated in'Figure 2.v The outer sideedge of the pocket has the lower portion 8 thereof stitched to the coatleaving the upper section 9 free from attachment to afford y a side orvertical opening into the interiorof the pocket. If preferred, all ofthe pockets may be of the inner or enclosed type and are 'accessiblethrough vertical entrancesl'ots provided in selected locations inthegarment- Figures 5, 6 and 7 illustrateV a modified form of the improvedbarbers'coat, smoclr or gown in which the reference numeral 10 indicatesthe body portion of a garment having an upper slot 11, a lower slot 12,and a side slot 13 provided therein with the margins of said slotsreinforced with braid or tape.l The top and bottom slots 11 and 12 areopposite one another and determine the height of the pocket. The sideslot 13 extends upwardly from adjacent one end of the lower slot 12 to aheight approximately half the height of the pocket.

The pocket proper comprises a piece of material`14 having the innerlongitudinal or side margin thereof stitched or otherwise secured to thebody portion 10 of the coat by stitching 15 or'the like. f Formed on theupper margin of the pocket piece 14 is an upper flange or flap lwhich isadapted to be projected upwardly through the upper slot 13 and isattached to the inner side of the garment by meansof buttons 17 or thelike. When buttons are used the flap 16 is provided with suitable buttonholes to permit attachment of the flap. The lower margin of the pocketpiece 14 is provided with a lower flange or iap 18 which projectsthrough the lower slot 12 of the garment and is then bent upwardly toclose the lower end of the pocket. The flap 18 is provided with buttonholes to permit the same to be removably attached to buttons 19 securedon theinner side ofthe garment. As clearly illustrated in Figure 5 thepocket piece 14 is also provided with a side angeor flap 20 whichprojects through the side slot or opening'l and is then bent over toclose the lower portion ofthe outer side of the pocket.-

' The iap 20 is providedl with button holes to permit the same tobebuttoned onv buttons 21 secured on the inner side of the garment. Theupper portion of the outer side of the pocket piece 14 is provided withan extension or flap which is bent inwardly and stitched to the rearside of the pocket to provide a reinforced margin or hem aording amout-hpiece or entrance for the improved pocket.

' The hemmed portion 22is provided with button holes 23to permit theupper and lower ends of the mouth-piece of the pocket to be engaged onbuttons 24 secured to therouter side of the garment. l Y

It will thus be noted that the modified form of'pocket illustrated inFigure 5 is permanentlyattached to the garment 10 only along the sewededge 15 thereby adording an arrangement whereby the buttons on themargins or flaps ofthe pocket may be readily unbuttoned or released,Vallowing the pocket to be opened or reversed.
